Awagaman
temporary installation
The wrapped figure is one of the most intriguing images. Sometimes it is a cocoon with its life potential, sometimes it’s a mummy, an icon of death. No matter how it’s used, its reference is human and the form is almost the same for either. It’s this potential for blurring the meaning which attracts me to it. Death reminds us to live in an aware manner. Life is circular, not linear. The most fertile soil is made of decayed matter.

There is a story behind Awagaman.
Emerging Figures
The Emerging Figures were inspired by the Charles Williams story All Hallow’s Eve, a fantasy tale in which characters can travel between realms. In “Emerging Figures,” the bodies find points of entrance into our realm via quiet corners where their presence can be felt before it is seen.
